Interior Journal from Stanford, Kentucky • Page 2

-Tf Stanford, Charlcs D. WRianr, a newspaper man, author of "ti'si Haunter, John Sherman, to be presiding officer of tho Benate acd he was yesterday chosen to that position, receiving the full republican vote over Ihain xlrri, of Tennessee, who ws the democratic caucus nominee for tho sinie position. It i9 said that the Sena-e will ps a bill at an early date, providing for the presidential succession from the members of the Cabinet, in which event Sherman's prospect of succeeding Mr. Cleveland will have gaue a' glimmering. It has been known for some line that Hon.

John S. VanWinkle, of Danville, would be a candidate for Circuit Judge, but there hafl been no formal announcement till now. when we are authorized by him to say that he is a candidate, subject to the primary election to be held next March. Of Mr. VauWinkle'e high attain-meals as a lawyer and of his standing a gentleman, it is useless for us to speak, so well and favorably is he known all over the district, and should he receive the office he seeks there is no one who will question that he will discharge its duties with credit to himself and constituents.

Wo that the only office he has heretofore held was that of Secretary of State under Gov. Bramlette. He has many warm friends over the district, who will do their best to secure his nomination. TnE rare honor of a nomination by acclamation to be Speaker of the National House waa deservedly bestowed on Kentucky's statesman, John Q. Carlisle, and yesterday he wa again chosen by that body to preside over it.

Reed, of Maine, was the republican nominee for the same position. The other democratic ciucus nominees were Gen. John B. Clark, who will succeed himself as Clerk; I. F.Leedom, of Ohio, renominated for Sergeant at-Arms; Sam Dsnelson, of Tennessee, for Doorkeeper, and Rev.

W. B. Milburn for Chaplain of the House. The latter is a blind preacher and well known here, where he has fre quently preached and lectured. The republicans nominated candidates for each of the offices named above, but all of course got enowed under by some 40 to 50 majority each.

IIefeiuuko to the grab which was practiced by some papers en the Stato Treasury for publishing the constitutional election call, the Offensboro Inquirer remarks that as ihu bill of each paper bad to be sworn to, "the presumption is that the publisher did not commit peijjry for a few dollars," This all sounds very prettily, but will the Inquuer swear that it would have charged any other patron 551 75 for the same work it did fjr the Statt? Mn. Tilden ha? written a letter to Speaker Carlisle, suggesting among other things that the surplus revenues of the country be used in building up our coast defenses, now utterly at the mercy of any foe who wishes to afsail them. He also urges the maintenance of the Monroe doctrine both in spirit and letter. Mr. Tilden's views are always interesting and worthy of the highest repect.

The friends of Judge M. H. Owtley, and their name is legion, will read with regret his card declinios to become a candidate to succeed himself. For 21 yean he has served his pjDple faithfully and well and he will retire with the of the possession of as many friends sb any body, Anotiiek Kentucky editor has knocked a persimmon, Mr. W.

Bat with much more appreciation of the in delicacy of his tilling the position than his supporters, he arose to a higher plant) than we thought him capable of reaching, and declined the honor. It is ft big bid for the republican nomination in 18SS and was a shrewd bit of strategy to that end, for it is said that his friends worked openly to secure the nomination for him so that he could decline it.
